Disadvantages of the Daewoo T22SED engine

  • The main disadvantage is the small resource of the timing belt, and when it breaks, the valves bend;
  • The second most common engine failure is a frequently bursting exhaust manifold;
  • An electrician regularly throws up problems, more often than others the camshaft position sensor or the crankshaft position sensor fails;
  • The reason for floating engine speeds is usually contamination of the idle control, crankcase ventilation or EGR valve;
  • The use of low-quality oil quickly affects the condition of hydraulic lifters.
